Jee mains 97.2 percentile i got cse in nit

Ans: Ashish, A 97.2 percentile in JEE Main corresponds to an approximate General category rank of 32,000–42,000, based on historical normalization trends and seat matrices. For Computer Science and Engineering (CSE), admission to top-tier NITs like Trichy, Warangal, or Surathkal is highly unlikely, as their 2024 closing ranks ranged between 1,500–15,000. However, newer NITs such as Mizoram (2024 CSE closing rank: 49,385), Sikkim (CSE cutoff: 143,919), and Arunachal Pradesh (CSE closing rank: 50,086) are feasible options, given their higher admission thresholds. These institutions report 60–85% placement rates for CSE, with roles in software development and IT services, albeit with fewer core-tech opportunities compared to premier NITs.

Recommendation: Target CSE at NIT Mizoram or NIT Sikkim during JoSAA counseling, prioritizing these campuses for their marginally lower cutoffs. For backups, consider ECE at NIT Nagaland (closing rank: 38,856) or Information Technology at NIT Uttarakhand (closing rank: 72,267), which offer comparable curricula and 70–80% placement rates. Alternatively, explore state universities like Jadavpur University (non-JEE merit seats) or IIITs such as IIIT Bhagalpur (CSE cutoff: 68,434), which blend technical rigor with industry-aligned programs. All the BEST for your Admission & a Prosperous Future!

JEE Mains- Csn i get cse in NIT surathkal with 97.87 percentile (sc category karnataka)

Ans: Hello Ambika
Chances are there to get admission to NIT but can't surely say about Surathkal. It would be better to visite the official website of NIT Surathkar and explore the cutoff of previous years which can help you to predict better.
Follow me, if satisfied with the reply.

Sir I have scored 128 marks in mht cet sir is it possible to get tier 1 college of mhtcet with cse or ece ( home state student) Thanku sir

Ans: With 128 marks in MHT CET, getting into a tier 1 college with Computer Science (CSE) or Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) is unlikely but not impossible. Tier 1 colleges for MHT CET typically require scores significantly higher than 128, especially for competitive branches like CSE and ECE.

I have secured 80 marks in IAT 2025, will I get IISER. If yes, which one can I expect

Ans: With an IAT score of 80, getting into any IISER is unlikely, particularly for the general category. While IISERs have no official passing marks and admission is based on cutoff ranks and seat availability, an 80 score generally places you outside the range of successful applicants. Scores below 90 are considered low, and while some newer IISERs might have lower cutoffs, even they are typically not within reach with an 80 score.
